Chapter 5 Transfer Student

Having said that, Li Ming, Qiu Huoming and Ding Yu have been classmates since elementary school, and they were directly promoted from the junior high school to the high school of the same school. Compared with many classmates, their relationship should be deeper. Unfortunately, Qiu Huoming has a weird personality, and he can't stand Li Ming's behavior and his group of lackeys.

As time went by, we drifted apart and became just nodding acquaintances.

After a while, familiar background music came from the speakers on both sides of the stands, and a passionate female voice echoed over the playground. Qiu Huoming stretched his limbs, followed Li Ming, and finished the whole exercise. When the show ended, Qiu Huoming grabbed Li Ming and started an emotional offensive.

"Monitor, I heard there will be a preliminary selection later. You know a lot, can you tell me what's going on?"

Li Ming looked at Qiu Huoming in surprise. His followers Zhang Jian and Chen Yong followed behind him, whispering to each other.

Li Ming cleared his throat, "You also want to go to college?"

Qiu Huoming nodded, "There is no way out at home, so I have no choice but to go to college."

"Then study hard and don't skip classes. I heard from the teacher that the preliminary selection will be held one month before the official college entrance examination."

"If students study in rural areas, do they also have to participate in the preliminary selection?" Qiu Huoming asked.

"Yes, their pre-selection has a higher failure rate, so middle schools like ours will be given more places."

A question in Qiu Huoming's mind was answered. No wonder the uncle was so determined to give his student number to Qiu Sheng.

Also, when I was in the first year of high school, I was actually very motivated to study. When did I start to change? Qiu Huoming thought about it carefully. It should be during the summer vacation when the uncle took me and Qiu Sheng to visit the meat processing factory where he worked, and my thoughts changed.

Under their instigation, working in a factory is good in every way, while studying is bad in every way.

The original person was easily influenced and had no opinion of his own, so he actually listened to it.

"Thank you, class monitor, for the popular science. I'll go back to class first." Qiu Huoming didn't consider himself an outsider at all. He patted Li Ming's shoulder with a smile and walked forward with big strides.

Li Ming's two followers then stepped forward, and Zhang Jian pouted, "Did this kid take the wrong medicine?"

"Who knows? Don't worry about him." Zhang Yong continued.

Li Ming looked at Qiu Huoming's back as he quickly left not far away. He vaguely felt that Qiu Huoming had changed. In the past, he always felt that he was so tall but liked to hunch his back. Now that his back was straight, he had an inexplicable aura and looked much more pleasing to the eye.

"I heard that there will be a transfer student in our class. Would you like to go and take a look?" Chen Yong approached Li Ming and asked.

Chen Yong's father is the deputy director of the school office, so he has a lot of gossip. Being able to show off in front of Li Ming is one of his greatest pleasures.

Zhang Jian, who was standing by, immediately became interested. "Male or female?"

"What do I want you to see if it's a man? Of course it's a woman." Chen Yong said.

"Go ahead, I need to go to the bathroom." Li Ming rubbed his stomach.

"We'll see each other soon anyway, let's go and drain the water together!" Zhang Jian put his hand on Chen Yong's shoulder, and the three of them chatted and laughed as they walked towards the classroom.

When Qiu Huoming returned to the classroom, it was still empty. Most of the students had not returned yet. Ding Yu woke up and was reading a comic book.

Qiu Huoming took a look and saw it was The Biography of Yue Fei.

"What a promising future! You are so old, but you are still reading this kind of picture book. You should read martial arts novels, which are much more exciting." Qiu Huoming retracted his gaze, he took out the chemistry textbook and opened the first page.

"What martial arts novel? Have you read it?"

He put down the comic book and continued, "I wish I were in the era of Yue Fei. It is the true nature of a man to defend his country and fight on the battlefield!" Ding Yu stood up, posed, raised his head and said excitedly.

"Puchi" a girl's laughter came from behind.

Ding Yu and Qiu Huoming turned around together and saw a pretty girl wearing a camel-colored wool coat, a high ponytail, and a red and black knitted striped scarf standing behind them.

She was carrying a khaki school bag, which was much better looking than their straight-tube style.

Ding Yu covered his chest with one hand, as if he had been shot by an arrow, and glanced at Qiu Huoming.

Qiu Huoming understood what he meant immediately and almost couldn't bear to look at it. The last girl who was shot by Cupid's arrow was the study committee member He Xinxin. Fortunately, she was not in the classroom at the moment.

Qiu Huoming looked at the girl in front of him.

This girl's appearance and temperament were completely different from those of the female students in this county. To put it in later words, she had the air of a person who had seen the world.

"Who are you?" Qiu Huoming asked.

"This is Class 3 of Senior 2, right?" The girl's voice was very nice, soft and charming.

"Yes……"

"That's right, I'm a transfer student. Are there any vacancies in your class?" the girl asked.

Qiu Huoming pointed to the row in front of him without hesitation and said, "This seat is empty, welcome to take a seat."

The seats in the front row were indeed vacant; their owners had long since left to attend a technical school. And because they were at the back, no one else was willing to move over and sit there.

The girl glanced at the window next to her seat and the playground outside the window, and seemed very satisfied with this position.

"Then I'll sit here first."

"Hey, wait a minute." Ding Yu finally reacted. He quickly walked to the front row, stretched out his sleeves, and wiped the seat and the table.

"Okay, sit down."

Qiu Huoming couldn't help but laugh when he saw Ding Yu's lackey behavior.

In his previous life, after he fell into the water, he only came to school once, and it was his uncle who took him directly to the office building to withdraw from school. Naturally, he didn't know that there was such a transfer student.

"My name is Qiu Huoming, his name is Ding Yu, what's your name?" Qiu Huoming asked.

"Gu Xiaoran." She said with a sweet smile, then put down her schoolbag and sat in the front row, next to the window.

"What martial arts novel are you talking about?" she turned her head and asked.

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes by Mr. Jin Yong." Qiu Huoming had the impression that the TV series adapted from this novel would be broadcast in the next few years.

"You've seen it too. Which character do you like best?" Gu Xiaoran asked excitedly.

Ding Yu silently put away the picture book. He had no chance to join in their conversation. He glanced at Qiu Huoming with a sad look.

"That must be the little witch Huang Rong!" Qiu Huoming said without any hesitation.

"Me too! She dares to love and hate, and most importantly, she is extremely smart."

Gu Xiaoran's eyes lit up, and her already pretty face became more radiant. In Qiu Huoming's eyes, she actually looked a bit like Hong Kong star Weng Meiling. She is also one of the actors who will play the role of Huang Rong in the future, and Qiu Huoming thinks she is the most suitable actor for this role.

"Ring ring ring..."

The class bell rang suddenly.

Qiu Huoming smiled and said, "It's time for class."

Gu Xiaoran turned his head and looked towards the door curiously. The sound of footsteps came one after another in the corridor. Most of the students from Class 3 who came in one after another were like Qiu Huoming. They were dressed simply and in other words, not particular.
